Mexico City Launches EDEN Mestizaje Park, Reveals Plans for Utopías

The park opened with free recreational attractions as part of an effort to connect marginalized neighborhoods through municipal social investment

Overview

  • EDEN Mestizaje reopened on August 15 after restoring roughly 48,000–50,000 m² of grounds, historic statues and emblematic areas and installing 319 new luminarias
  • The park’s free amenities include a 0.5 km mega zipline in four segments, a carousel, a 12-meter rappel wall, the capital’s largest sandbox, inclusive playgrounds, a BMX track, train rides and a dog area
  • Located at Insurgentes Norte beside the Indios Verdes transport hub, the site offers direct access via Metro Line 3, Metrobús Lines 1 and 7, Cablebús Line 1 and Mexicable Line 2
  • Jefa de Gobierno Clara Brugada and Alcalde Janecarlo Lozano framed the inauguration as a showcase of well-invested public resources and announced six forthcoming “Utopías” plus additional EDEN sites
  • News outlets report conflicting operational details—park hours range from 08:00–20:00 or from 10:00–18:00/20:00 and total area figures vary slightly—creating uncertainty for visitors
